2020-2021 Green Meadows Conference COVID-19 Event Protocols

The Green Meadows Conference will be limiting attendance to events in order to follow the order released on Wednesday, August 19, 2020 by the Ohio Department of Health and Governor DeWine. All member schools will follow the protocols listed below. The GMC will promote an environment that allows student participants and spectators to safely distance from one another. In order to achieve this, the conference will offer ticket sales to our athletes and participants. It is imperative to limit attendance to 15% (or less) in our athletic facilities.
